I just got the standard feed. at least I think it was. I mean, I don't have HD capacity, but it was in widescreen and looked a little crisper.

Why? It wasn't Foley propelling it, was it? He just got shoved through by Trips.

One supposes.
Shame about Dreamer. He was real over and even got Taker to sell for him.

I can't wait until Chris(Space Mountain) gets back. He was there, and the one thing he kept re-iterating to me was how hot the crowd was during the whole show

Just got a voice mail from Chris(well, just found out about it). He said something about two fans beating the shit out of each other or something(sounded like he said Islander fans, but it was really loud in the background.) He'll have a better description when he gets back.

That's two shows in a week where fans have beaten the smurf out of each other.

And why is it that if someone doesn't like Cena they are automatically an evil no good smark?

I mean, why even bother with any midcarders/jobbers? Just have the Rumble be the Undertaker, HHH, HBK, Batista, Mysterio, Edge, Orton, & Cena. Those are the only guys that ever have a REAL shot at winning the bastard. It was great for the shock value, but after that wares off, reality starts to set in. We're in for another brutal period in the WWE (namely RAW) with Cena at the helm.
We're right where we were 2 years ago. Cena comes in, will win the title, and all shall fall around him. And it's not even a new Cena. It's the same character with the same style.

Part of me does wonder whether or not Cena makes it to WrestleMania. They could run an injury angle to keep him out for a few months. (He still has to make a movie, right?) Then, Cena's got a built-in feud when he returns, and the RAW Elimination Chamber still happens.

am i the only one that thought this ppv sucked? i mean, the cena return was just the ass-icing on the suck-cake, but i was just really disappointed with the whole thing.
and what happened to hornswaggle? he was never eliminated or disqualified. and also, wouldn't finley's dq leave a spot open since he never actually wrestled? how did cena win? shitty, shitty booking.

Never... NEVER have I been more disappointed, upset, and generally pissed off at the wrestling industry than I am right now.
I laughed off the Katie Vick storyline as mere Wrestlecrap. I rolled my eyes and grinned at the Fingerpoke of Doom. I even happily made fun of Young Randall Orton, jokingly calling his matches and counting how many different moves he did in each one. (The average is nine, if you count "kick" and "stomp" as seperate moves.)
But this is ridiculous. John Cena the man is, by all accounts, one of the most awesome guys in the buisiness today. John Cena the character is easily my least favorite wrestler of all time. Watching a John Cena storyline is like watching your average 80's superhero cartoon show. Hero gives the kiddies good advice, hero gets in trouble, hero battles evil, evil gains a huge advantage, hero overcomes the odds and saves the day, an allegedly witty joke is told, and the credits roll. Anyone over the age of 10 will get real bored, real fast.
Some have suggested that WWE might be planning something else for Cena. A change in character, an edgier storyline, less overcoming the odds and more reality. While I applaud their cautious optimism, I have no faith that'll happen. RAW's ratings have been rather crappy since Cena got put on the injured list. While most here blame the talentless Randall Orton for it, WWE will see it as Cena's absence causing people to lose interest. So why not push him the exact same way, with the exact same storylines over again to get ratings back up around 4.0, instead of 3.2?
Screw that, though. I would've been happier with Snitsky winning. Or Big Daddy V. Or Mark Henry. At least that'd be something different, something fresh, something full of Wrestlecrap, rather than the same old tired song and dance main-eventing the biggest show of the year for the third time in a row. For the first time, I'm considering just missing the Road to WrestleMania entirely. The main event is almost inevitably going to "feature" Randy Orton vs. John Cena for the WWE Title.
Prove me wrong, WWE. For God's sake, please, prove me wrong.
